Introduction & User Guide (Chapters 0–1)

The opening chapters set out the safety regulations, accident prevention rules and disposal requirements that apply to the TCG 2020. You’ll find the structure of the documentation explained, including the difference between the Operating Instructions and the Workshop Manual, the job card numbering system (B-series for operating instructions, W-series for workshop manual), and how to use the job cards for maintenance and repair work.

Description (Chapter 2)

This is where the TCG 2020 is fully introduced. It covers the type designation, rating plate location and layout, engine side and cylinder designation, and direction of rotation. Detailed sections walk through the cylinder head, driving gear, crankcase, engine control and wheel drive, speed regulation (including the actuator and regulating linkage), charging system with turbocharger and compressor bypass, gas regulator line, gas/air carburettor and mixture formation, lube oil system, crankcase bleed valve, cooling system, compressed air system, and the complete electrical system including ignition, spark plugs and terminal assignment plans.

Operation (Chapter 3)

Step-by-step procedures for pre-commissioning checks, filling coolant and lube oil, pre-lubrication, gas supply, commissioning and starting, warming up, room ventilation, monitoring operation and system monitoring. It covers what to check before first start-up and after every inspection, with specific attention to the lube oil system and coolant circuit.

Expendables (Chapter 4)

Full specifications for combustion gases, lube oil and engine coolant, plus a detailed table of auxiliary materials including sealants, securing agents, gluing agents and lubricants. Each entry gives the DEUTZ material designation, standards, characteristics and application examples.

Maintenance (Chapter 5)

The maintenance chapter provides scheduled maintenance plans for both gas group 1 (natural gas, propane, butane, LNG, petroleum gas) and gas group 2 (sewage gas, pit gas, dump gas, wood gas and other bio-gases). It includes operating hours-independent and operating hours-dependent maintenance work tables, definitions of activities, gas group classifications, silicon content guidance, and a complete tool kit listing with order numbers.

Troubleshooting (Chapter 6)

A comprehensive fault table with remedy instructions covering starting failures, performance issues, irregular firing, overheating, low lube oil pressure, coolant contamination and more. Each fault is cross-referenced with possible causes and the appropriate corrective action.

Technical Particulars (Chapter 8)

General engine data, basic data, control data, dimensions, weights, filling levels, temperatures, pressures, emission data, engine peripheral data, start system details, speed controller specifications, RI flow diagrams, CHP system examples, lube oil supply schematics and tightening specifications. This is the reference chapter for anyone needing exact values.

Job Cards (Chapter 9)

The job cards are the practical heart of the manual. Each card gives you the tools, equipment, spare parts and cross-references needed for a specific task, followed by the work sequence. Covered jobs include checking and setting valve clearance, maintaining the crankcase bleed valve, checking speed controller action, renewing suction air intake filters, checking gas pressure, cleaning gas filters, taking lube oil samples, changing lube oil, renewing lube oil filter cartridges, checking coolant protection, draining the air bottle, maintaining the battery, and servicing spark plugs and cables.

Why This Manual Matters

The TCG 2020 is a high-performance industrial gas engine used in combined heat and power applications. Correct operation and maintenance are critical — wrong valve clearances, contaminated lube oil, incorrect gas pressure or neglected coolant protection can lead to expensive damage, unplanned downtime and safety hazards. This manual gives you the exact procedures, torque values, clearances and diagnostic steps that DEUTZ specifies for these engines. From routine daily checks to major overhaul planning, every procedure is laid out with the precision you’d expect from a manufacturer’s operating instructions.
